Pet linija koda: kako i kada refaktorisati U knjizi Pet linija koda učićete o refaktorisanju koje je fokusirano na konkretna pravila svođenja bilo kog metoda na pet linija ili manje! Knjiga ne sadrži žargon niti su vam potrebne posebne veštine za automatsko testiranje. Ona sadrži samo jednostavne smernice i obrasce ilustrovane detaljnim primerima koda. Obuhvaćene su sledeće teme: Znaci lošeg koda Bezbedno poboljšanje koda, čak i kada ga ne razumete Balansiranje optimizacije i uopštenosti koda Pravilne prakse kompajlera Metod izdvajanja, uvođenje Strategy obrasca i mnogih drugih obrazaca refaktorisanja Pisanje stabilnog koda koji omogućava promenu dodavanjem Pisanje koda koji ne zahteva komentare Praksa iz stvarnog sveta za sjajno refaktorisanje Poboljšanje postojećeg koda – refaktorisanje – jedan je od najčešćih zadataka sa kojima ćete se suočiti kao programer. U knjizi Pet linija koda naučićete jasna i delotvorna pravila refaktorisanja koja možete da primenite bez oslanjanja na intuitivno mišljenje, kao što je „miris koda“. Prateći stručnu perspektivu autora – da se refaktorisanje i mirisi koda mogu naučiti praćenjem konkretnog skupa principa – naučićete kada da refaktorišete kod, koje obrasce da primenite na koji problem i karakteristike koda koje ukazuju da je vreme za preradu. O tehnologiji Svaka baza kodova sadrži greške i neefikasnost koje je potrebno da pronađete i ispravite. Refaktorišite na pravi način da bi kod postao elegantan, lak za čitanje i održavanje. Uz ovu knjigu ćete naučiti jedinstven pristup refaktoriranju koji implementira bilo koji metod u pet linija, ili manje. Takođe ćete otkriti tajnu koju većina starijih programera zna: ponekad je brže razraditi kod i ispraviti ga kasnije! Kome je namenjena knjiga Za programere svih nivoa veštine. Za primere je korišćen lako čitljiv Typescript, u istom stilu kao Java i C#. O autoru Kristijan Klauzen radi kao tehnički agilni trener, podučava timove da refaktorišu kod.

This, the first volume in Randall Hyde’s Write Great Code series, dives into machine organization without the extra overhead of learning assembly language programming. Written for high-level language programmers, Understanding the Machine fills in the low-level details of machine organization that are often left out of computer science and engineering courses. Learn: How the machine represents numbers, strings, and high-level data structures, so you’ll know the inherent cost of using them. How to organize your data, so the machine can access it efficiently. How the CPU operates, so you can write code that works the way the machine does. How I/O devices operate, so you can maximize your application’s performance when accessing those devices. How to best use the memory hierarchy to produce the fastest possible programs. Great code is efficient code. But before you can write truly efficient code, you must understand how computer systems execute programs and how abstractions in programming languages map to the machine’s low-level hardware. After all, compilers don’t write the best machine code; programmers do. This book gives you the foundation upon which all great software is built. NEW IN THIS EDITION, COVERAGE OF: Programming languages like Swift and Java Code generation on modern 64-bit CPUs ARM processors on mobile phones and tablets Newer peripheral devices Larger memory systems and large-scale SSDs Author Bio Randall Hyde is the author of The Art of Assembly Language, one of the most highly recommended resources on assembly, and the three volume Write Great Code series (all No Starch Press). He is also the co-author of The Waite Group's MASM 6.0 Bible. He has written for Dr. Dobb’s Journal, Byte, as well as professional journals.

This book fills in the gaps. I strongly recommend it." —InformIT.com Write Great Code "isn't your typical 'teach yourself to program' book. . . It's relevant to all languages, and all levels of programming experience. . . Run, don't walk, to buy and read this book." —Bay Area Large Installation System Administrators (BayLISA) 5/5 stars: "[Write Great Code] fills in the blanks nicely and really could be part of a Computer Science degree required reading set... Once this book is read, you will have a greater understanding and appreciation for code that is written efficiently - and you may just know enough to do that yourself. At least you will have a great start at the art of crafting efficient software." —MacCompanion "Great fun to read." —VSJ Magazine "Write Great Code: Understanding the Machine should be on the required reading list for anyone who wants to develop terrific code in any language without having to learn assembly language." —WebServerTalk

Ako nikada niste programirali, pravi je trenutak da to uradite. Ako ste već programirali, ova knjiga vas upoznaje sa svim novim u C# 2008. Reč autora Dragi čitaoče, Ova knjiga bi trebalo da vam pokaže kako da napišete dobar programski kod u programskom jeziku C# 2008, čak i ako nikada ranije niste programirali. Pisanje programskog koda je pravi izazov jer postoji veoma veliki broj opcija, naročito u programskom jeziku C# 2008. Dakle, ukoliko želite zaista da što bolje upotrebite programski jezik morate da znate kada i koje osobine treba da upotrebite, kao i da znate dobre i loše strane programskog jezika. Takvo znanje pravi razliku izmežu pisanja programskog koda i dobrog programskog koda. Imajući to na umu, napisao sam knjigu „C# 2008“ kako bih vas naučio da programski jezik C# 2008 koristite za rešavanje problema. Od prvih poglavlja, i od uvodnih koncepata o programskom jeziku C#, susretaćete se sa izazovima praktičnog programiranja i učićete kako da na njih odgovorite korišćenjem programskog jezika C#. Problemi će, dok budete čitali knjigu, postajati teži i interesantniji jer ću vam pokazati kako osobine programskog jezika C# možete da upotrebite kako biste postigli željene rezultate. Pošto pročitate knjigu „C# 2008“ i uradite vežbanja, postaćete kompetentan i siguran C# programer. Ipak, postoji još mnogo toga u .NET Framework API-ju što treba da naučite kako biste poboljšali vaše programiranje, ali ćete steći dobre osnove za buduću karijeru C# programera, i znaćete gde da pronađete informacije kako koje će vam pomoći da dovršite sopstvene C# projekte. Napomena: Oni koji su čitali knjige ovog autora, već mu veruju.

Authors Mat Ryer Mat Ryer has a family legend (or conspiracy) that tells of him programming computers from the age of 6—he and his father would build games and programs, first BASIC on a ZX Spectrum then later AmigaBASIC and AMOS on their Commodore Amiga. Many hours were spent manually copying out code from the Amiga Format magazine, before spending more still tweaking variables or moving GOTO statements around to see what might happen. The same spirit of exploration and obsession with programming led Mat to start work for a local agency in Mansfield, England, when he was 18, where he started to build websites and services. In 2006, Mat's wife, Laurie, took a job at the Science Museum in London, and so they both left rural Nottinghamshire for the big city, where Mat took a job at BT. It was here that he worked with a talented group of developers and managers on honing agile development skills and developing a light flavor that he still uses today. After contracting around London for a few years, coding everything from C# and Objective-C to Ruby and JavaScript, Mat noticed a new systems language called Go that Google was pioneering. Because it addressed very pertinent and relevant modern technical challenges, Mat started using it to solve problems while the language was still in beta and he has used it ever since. In 2012, Mat and Laurie left England to live in Boulder, Colorado, where Mat works on a variety of projects, from big data web services and highly available systems to small side projects and charitable endeavors.

What You Will Learn Learn to think in the functional paradigm Understand common data structures and the associated algorithms, as well as the context in which they are commonly used Take a look at the runtime and space complexities with the O notation See how ADTs are implemented in a functional setting Explore the basic theme of immutability and persistent data structures Find out how the internal algorithms are redesigned to exploit structural sharing, so that the persistent data structures perform well, avoiding needless copying. Get to know functional features like lazy evaluation and recursion used to implement efficient algorithms Gain Scala best practices and idioms Book Description Functional data structures have the power to improve the codebase of an application and improve efficiency. With the advent of functional programming and with powerful functional languages such as Scala, Clojure and Elixir becoming part of important enterprise applications, functional data structures have gained an important place in the developer toolkit. Immutability is a cornerstone of functional programming. Immutable and persistent data structures are thread safe by definition and hence very appealing for writing robust concurrent programs. How do we express traditional algorithms in functional setting? Won’t we end up copying too much? Do we trade performance for versioned data structures? This book attempts to answer these questions by looking at functional implementations of traditional algorithms. It begins with a refresher and consolidation of what functional programming is all about. Next, you’ll get to know about Lists, the work horse data type for most functional languages. We show what structural sharing means and how it helps to make immutable data structures efficient and practical. Scala is the primary implementation languages for most of the examples. At times, we also present Clojure snippets to illustrate the underlying fundamental theme. While writing code, we use ADTs (abstract data types). Stacks, Queues, Trees and Graphs are all familiar ADTs. You will see how these ADTs are implemented in a functional setting. We look at implementation techniques like amortization and lazy evaluation to ensure efficiency. By the end of the book, you will be able to write efficient functional data structures and algorithms for your applications.

Drowning in unnecessary complexity, unmanaged state, and tangles of spaghetti code? In the best tradition of Lisp, Clojure gets out of your way so you can focus on expressing simple solutions to hard problems. Clojure cuts through complexity by providing a set of composable tools—immutable data, functions, macros, and the interactive REPL. Written by members of the Clojure core team, this book is the essential, definitive guide to Clojure. This new edition includes information on all the newest features of Clojure, such as transducers and specs. Clojure joins the flexibility and agility of Lisp with the reach, stability, and performance of Java. Combine Clojure’s tools for maximum effectiveness as you work with immutable data, functional programming, and safe concurrency to write programs that solve real-world problems. Start by reading and understanding Clojure syntax and see how Clojure is evaluated. From there, find out about the sequence abstraction, which combines immutable collections with functional programming to create truly reusable data transformation code. Clojure is a functional language; learn how to write programs in a functional style, and when and how to use recursion to your advantage. Discover Clojure’s unique approach to state and identity, techniques for polymorphism and open systems using multimethods and protocols, and how to leverage Clojure’s metaprogramming capabilities via macros. Finally, put all the pieces together in a real program. New to this edition is coverage of Clojure’s spec library, one of the most interesting new features of Clojure for describing both data and functions. You can use Clojure spec to validate data, destructure data, explain invalid data, and generate large numbers of tests to verify the correctness of your code. With this book, you’ll learn how to think in Clojure, and how to take advantage of its combined strengths to build powerful programs quickly. 5 Tips for Thinking in Clojure 1. Rely on your REPL. Clojure (like other LISP languages) intends to provide a “live” development experience where you are actively manipulating and testing the program while you develop the code. To take full advantage of Clojure, it’s essential to work in a development environment that allows you to interactively evaluate parts of your code while you develop. We are fortunate to have a variety of tool choices in Clojure that can satisfy those demands. 2. Maps, not Objects. Developers coming from object-oriented languages are likely to look for the ability to create classes or objects to hold their data. Clojure takes a more direct and flexible approach to data, primarily storing information attributes in heterogenous maps. Rather than providing class-specific interfaces, Clojure provides a single generic data interface for creating, accessing, and transforming attribute-oriented information. The result is that modeling data and managing the evolution of data over time is generally much more generic and immediate than the equivalent operations in object-oriented languages. 3. Collections, not Loops. Imperative languages encourage you to write loops that manipulate data elements one-by-one. In Clojure, you instead think primarily in collections, not loops. When transformations need to be applied, you use a functional approach to describe the transformation from one collection to another, which may involve mapping, filtering, or otherwise transforming data at the collection level. 4. Isolate State. Clojure is not a pure functional language – it has constructs readily available to create and manage state, perform I/O, etc. However, most Clojure developers minimize the number of functions that work with these kinds of constructs. As much as possible, Clojure functions tend to be small and pure, just simple transformations of data to data. Clojure’s model for all state manipulation is to describe stateful change as a function from prior state to new state. Stateful change thus becomes little more than the application of pure functions to data. 5. Have Fun! Many people find Clojure to be one of the most enjoyable languages they’ve ever used. There is very little ceremony in the code, a literal syntax to easily represent data, a huge library of functions available for transforming data, and access to all of the existing functionality of the underlying host platform via either interop or libraries. Clojure gets out of the way and lets you get to work! Q&A with author Alex Miller Q: Why did you get involved with the 3rd edition of Programming Clojure? A: The first edition of Programming Clojure was important because it was the first Clojure book available. Stuart Halloway worked closely with Rich Hickey, the creator of Clojure, to capture the key ideas behind Clojure and let that philosophy shine through. I first picked up Clojure about the time this book was published and I found it to be a helpful and insightful guide. It has been a great challenge and pleasure to revisit this material that I used to learn Clojure myself from the other side of the page. Q: What’s changed since the 2nd edition? A: Aaron Bedra provided an excellent update in the second edition of Programming Clojure for the release of Clojure 1.3, which provided both a lot of new features and an overhaul of certain parts of the language (like numerics). In this third edition, everything has been brought up to date with Clojure 1.9, the latest release. I have included new material on features added since the last edition like transducers and spec. Additionally, many of the longer examples have been updated to take advantage of the latest features and functions of the language. Q: What kinds of problems are best solved with Clojure? A: Clojure was always conceived with the intent to be a general purpose language targeted at domains where its hosted languages (Java, C#, JavaScript) were prevalent. Those languages cover a lot of territory, and Clojure has been used in a wide variety of domains as well. However, the majority of Clojure developers are creating multi-tier information systems (server + web UI) where they can share code (in Clojure and ClojureScript) across the tiers. These kinds of systems take full advantage of Clojure’s portability and its focus on the representation and transformation of information. Typical domains that take maximum advantage are financial services, ecommerce, healthcare, energy, legal, entertainment, and more. Q: How portable is code between the different dialects of Clojure, ClojureScript, and ClojureCLR? A: At the heart of Clojure is the ability to represent data (using Clojure collections) and transform it using sequences and transducers. In almost all cases, code that creates and manipulates data, controls flow, or creates and invokes functions is exactly the same on all of these platforms. The areas where they start to differ is where the host platforms differ with respect to managing state or concurrency, or working with I/O, date/time, etc – places where Clojure and its dialects rely more heavily on the hosted platform. However, Clojure includes the ability to create conditional code such that minor host differences can be covered in a single cross-platform source file and users of that code don’t have to worry about those differences. Q: What’s the role of the new Clojure spec library? A: The spec library is perhaps the most important new feature added to Clojure in years. Clojure does a fantastic job of providing tools for representing any domain in data, and then manipulating that data. However, the combination of dynamic typing and generic data transformation means that while code be very concise and reusable, it’s sometimes hard to see at a glance the shape of the data flowing through your system. Specs provide a language for describing your data and the functions that use it. This language is based on predicate functions (code you already have) and once you write your specs you gain a whole host of tools for using them to validate data according to a spec, parse data into its constituent pieces, explain why an invalid value is invalid, automatically generate example data, detect invalid function calls, and even automatically test functions using generated data. Specs are quickly becoming an essential part of the Clojure toolset for managing data.
